We would like to announce our new addition at BG's!

This is the new BG's food truck that is fueling our team and providing healthy lunches to our staff, 4 times a week. Currently the food truck visits our Rolleston Sites twice a week, and our North Canterbury sites twice a week also. It's been great at getting everyone together for a Kai and Korero on site.
